Yes and Ive been approve since 2001 and DEC 17 2009 is when they acknowledge that i would be getting ssdi instead of ssi and so the same im fed up so this is what i do now i call every 2 week s and send mail to the office of operation who handle the retro back payments every two weeks why because they don`t have a problem telling you you owe them money so i put the pressure back on them saying and writing them hay you owe me and where is my back pay just google to get mailing address from social security.

There will always be variations in experiences with disability lawyers like Binder & Binder. I also hired them, but for the most part, they were more of an asset than a liability. They stuck by me through 3 years of denials, & were invaluable in their presentation of my case at my hearing. So far, I have no complaints. I previously applied to SS several times on my own & was always denied.

"2009 and i`m still waiting for my back pay..."

Good question! Mine was approved in October, 2009 and I`m still waiting for my back pay. I inquired at my local SSA office a couple of weeks ago and they told me my lawyer hasn`t been payed yet. They couldn`t tell me how long it would take. All I know is that no one I know who is getting disability had to wait this long for their back pay. It`s pushing my patience to it`s limit! :-(.

Same here! The hold up is at my local ss office. I started this entire rollercoaster in March 03`. I was finally awarded or whatever my case in 1/10. I was requested to go to my local office to "update" my status from my first application to the present. My atty. Has been paid. The SSD backpay appears to be in a holding pattern, and the SSI pay it appears to be forgotten on someone`s desk at my local office. When I am able to get through to them, the response is "we are holding it as to not create a hardship for you." STICK A FORK IN ME!

You do not get 3 installments the first month-crazy-at times they split the backpay into 3 payments,in 4 month increments-----and you have with in 90 days to spend them b4 they start counting it as part of your assests,which you may wanna do,to avoid being penalized on other programs you may be on-aka housing foodatamps ect.

Heavensent said: I just got my first check from SSI- the thing is though how do I know if it all my back pay or just some of it? They are going my husband income- so still how would I know. I had a 945 dollar check-

I have filed back in 12/2006, found out that a decision was made and was sent back to my town ss department, it was there for 3 monthes and they never notified me, I called and went in for an appointment that after 4-1/2 hour wait took 5-7min. I was told my money that is owed will take from 4-10wks to recieve and if I have a lawyer involved, it will take longer. I have called everyday but the agent who is caring for my case will not call me back!!! GOOD LUCK to you!! you may need it!!

After being approved as disability benefits there could be a 6 to 12 month wait till I recieve my first check.there is a social security disability check that is into the picture.For some it has arrived way before the long wait once approved

In general it takes around 3 to 4 months to have the disability tax credit approved. Generally the delays in having the disability tax credit approved are due to some issue with the documents needed for the same. Allen Darkman.

Once approved you should see your first check within a week. Sometimes I have heard of people in new jersey getting their check before their ssi approval letter. You will get 3 installments the first month.
